~divided into 3 parts with 3 flavours~

parchment paper)

6) Preheated oven with upper and lower grill for 5 minutes. Lay 5 tbsp of plain mixture into



 the baking tray and use upper grill for 4-5 minutes or until it is golden brown on the surface.


 Follow by the second layer; lay 5 tbsp of green mixture, smooth out neatly and use upper 


grill to grill for 4-5 mintues, third layer is plain and 4 th layer is mocha. Repeat doing the 


same until all of the cake mixture is finish. Cut each chocolate fingers into 4 parts and 


arrange after applying every alternate 3 layers.


~To get neat and tidy layers .. we have to get rid of the air bubbles layers.




**Tips: 1)Do not apply the layers too thick or else it will not cooked inside thou it will brown


 on the top.


2) If there is air bubble after grilled the layers, do poke it will a fork and flatten it will the 


tools. This is to prevent uneven layers when we cut.


~This is the tool that I am using to flatten the layers if there is air bubble trap

 in the layers...~

3) When all the layers are grilled, make sure it is completely cool, then we unmould it and

cut and serve....^^

  3. 记得当时我做kuih lapis 时,外观还满意,但切开时,中间有一些会分开!散散就不美了。我试了几次都是这样,看来,我要找时间再烘多一次,看看能找到什么原因吗。

  4. 你的这个情形可能是烘的太久变干也可能是食谱里的牛油比较少导致蛋糕比较干.
    蛋糕层如果比较干,层好的蛋糕就会散开. 下次你做时看看是这样吗?
